For the month of October, #TheEmpathyProject puts the spotlight on #IoCapitano, a film following two young boys on a harrowing journey from Senegal to Europe, where they encounter not only physical dangers but also the emotional turmoil of leaving home and family behind. The movie captures the structural obstacles boys face while on the move, and the pressure they experience from rigid gender norms. Our latest #GlobalBoysInitiative case study examines how ECPAT France supports boys on the move in Calais, France, from those at risk to survivors of sexual exploitation. Amidst the harsh realities of migration, where boys navigate hostile conditions and uncertain futures, frontline workers share crucial insights on building trust with boys on the move. As you watch Io Capitano, consider the real people behind these stories—and explore our case study to discover how safe spaces can support boys on the move in reclaiming their identities and understanding of masculinity after enduring years of displacement. 👉 Read the case study in English or French: https://bit.ly/EGBICS
